LibriVox recording of Frenzied Fiction, by Stephen Leacock. Read by Debra Lynn.
From the cave man to Santa Claus; spies, know-it-alls, and journalists: all are fair game for Leacock’s special brand of humor. He touches on the changes time has brought about in the city, education, and work habits. Among the other topics in this work are nature, fishing, gardening, success, and spirits--both of the departed and of the variety Prohibition prohibited.
Each chapter of this book is a standalone story and if you love a good laugh, these stories are for you. In me, Leacock’s wit produced the full range of laughter: smiles, chuckles, guffaws, and some uncontrollable giggles. Also, occasionally, I found myself shedding a tear or two. (Review by Debra Lynn)

Subject: 3rd time's a charm
i just finished listening a 3rd time in 1 week. Leacock's writing is comic genius (especially chapter 3), and no one could have delivered it as perfectly as Debra Lynn. with my previous 5 stars and 5 stars now, i give it 10 stars.
